abstract

The aim is to develop a metaphysics that is on the one hand 'correct' (it takes into ac count the best scientific results and recent philosophical developments), and that is in the full sense of the word a world-view (it directs and gives meaning to thought, feeling and action). I will concentrate mainly on the first aspect.
